Ketchup from My Way of Cooking- Review

[Bonsai]

I've done the same with instant coffee- DS complaining that the store brand coffee wasn't as good as Nes***e - we had a jar of both, so I swapped the contents.

DS couldn't tell the difference even after I told him a few weeks later

I picked up a box of field tomatoes this morning (10kg for $18) and came home to make some sauce.  I made 5 batches of this and froze the rest in 1kg bags for another day. I replaced the honey again with 50g of water and 100g raw sugar.  I also cut down the cooking time as I think it is a bit too condensed. 35 minutes cooking in the first stage and 12 minutes cooking in the second stage was perfect.  It is the consistency of bought sauce now and not tomato paste. It made quite a bit more also.

Thanks chelsea will add those tweaks too as i find it a bit thick and have trouble with it in the squeezy bottkes as it kept getting blocked!!

Love the idea of using the same bottle and mixing to start.

Will give this a go.

Thanks

I just made this yesterday too and loved it. Quite a few tweaks from me, and I meant to do Chelsea's tweaks but totally forgot.

So it's borderline fructose friendly (concentrated tomato itself can be iffy) but in principle is fine. I left out the onion and used brown sugar instead of the honey. Smoked paprika instead of hot paprika, so a big pinch of cayenne pepper. I thought it was fab and even Master 3 ate it quite happily.  NExt time would like to make it a bit runnier so will add the water + sugar combo Chelsea suggested.  I think the flavour is awesome - far better than commercial ketchups I have tried.

I'm desperate to try this recipe out. I bought some toms today with the plan of making the EDC ketchup but after reading all the reviews here I'd love to try this recipe. If its not too much trouble, please could I get a copy of the recipe?  I would be very grateful. TIA.

On it's way Brumington.

You're great JD!  Thank you!

There is a copy of this recipe ver on the official recipe community... Might save it having to be emailed. I'm not sure if I am allowed to link it, but a google search brings it up.

And it is delicious. Put it in a master foods sauce bottle and the kids are none the wiser. I think it tastes better.  Only alteration is that I put a chunk of crystallized ginger in it. Other than that, it was to the recipe.
